I used your bounding box code to make lines. What I really need is the pixel values of latlng objects. The application (a geography/place finding game) works, somewhat crudely. It doesn't work the first time! What I do is set the src of an image tag to 1 of 4 choices of gifs. Two of the gifts are diagonal lines with the rest transparent. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I need a better explanation of draw. The file is at http://newmedia.purchase.edu/~Jeanine/games/maps/mapxmlnextarrow.htmlMy muddied version of your code is called getpixels.js.

Well, I uploaded what I have but it is pretty kludgy. For one thing, it doesn't work the first time and it is slow.You can get to it by the previous link or from my examples page:http://newmedia.purchase.edu/~Jeanine/jsexamples.html

I have versions of place finding using Processing and Flash. These use acquired maps.

I used KmBox to draw an opaque circle around a search area. I simply convert the search miles to kilometers, then convert it from radius to circumference.. and it looks great in chrome, firefox, and safari.

IE does not seem to handle .PNGs very well, and I ended up disabling the code for IE. I tested IE6 & 7 only.

Do you have any suggestions for using BoundsBox / KmBox overlays in IE?
